Nachi robot capacity

[jonesy29847]

My plant has a Nachi SA160F-01 robot in house, we are reviewing the process (spot welding) for the purpose of cycle time reduction. One suggestion is to mount 2 weld guns on the EOAT, the welds are symetrical about the center line of the part. I am assuming the capacity of the robot to be 160kg, what I don't know is if I have to de-rate it based on distance and or velocity.

I would ask the manufacturer.

Take a look at:
